PACKET TRANSMISSION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18459163 titled 'PACKET TRANSMISSION METHOD AND APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for transmitting data packets in a network using global identifiers. Here are the key points:

  • The first network device receives a data packet.
  • The first network device updates the data packet to create a second data packet.
  • The second data packet includes a global identifier.
  • The second data packet is sent to a second network device.
  • The second network device verifies the second data packet using the global identifier.
  • The verification is based on a correspondence between the global identifier and the egress port of the second network device.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Data transmission in large-scale networks.
  • Network routing and switching systems.
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices and networks.
  • Cloud computing and data centers.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient and reliable data packet transmission.
  • Simplified network management and troubleshooting.
  • Enhanced security and verification of data packets.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved network performance and reliability.
  • Simplified network configuration and management.
  • Enhanced security and data packet verification.
  • Scalability for large networks and IoT devices.


Original Abstract Submitted

A packet transmission method includes: A first network device receives a first data packet; and the first network device updates the first data packet to obtain a second data packet, where the second data packet includes a global identifier; the first network device sends the second data packet to a second network device, where the global identifier is used by the second network device to verify the second data packet based on a correspondence, and the correspondence is a correspondence between the global identifier and an egress port through which the second network device transmits the second data packet.
